"Unfortunately,  however, for the public, the power they possess is not 
always equal to the weight which is due to their integrity and knowledge ; 
and whatever may be the excellence of any regulation they propose, or the 
advice they offer, it is frequently neutralized by passing through the 
ordeal of a board of directors, far too intent upon profit, and who, in 
then* joint capacity, esteem it no degradation- to sanction measures, which 
they would be very sorry to be considered as acting upon in their characters 
as individuals."

Charles Babbage (1826)
